United Kingdom6 months ago - Fantastic podcast
This is a fantastic podcast, in which Jack Aldane talks to different guests about the various works of Martin Amis. Different themes within the books are discussed, and passages read by the guests. I have thoroughly enjoyed the series so far, a ‘must listen’ for any Martin Amis fan, but would also say you don’t have to have read anything by Amis to be able to enjoy this podcast. Five stars from me.
Apple Podcasts5Sam PreestUnited Kingdoma year ago - A wonderful podcast
This is a wonderful podcast about a writer of enormous influence. Each guest not only brings a different perspective to Amis but also reveals their often complex relationship with him. After each episode you have a deeper understanding of Amis, and also of the guests. Highly recommended.
